      Hello Bob and Jenny, thank you so much for all of your videos in 2025 may 2026 be just as good, me and my wife were laughing when you said that must be the most sloppy pitch on the cmcs network because we stayed on that very pitch in the summer, the back of the caravan was almost touching the ground and the front steadies were fully down with a pile of chocks under them and the jockey wheel was fully extended with every stack a jack I had, people used to point at us, nice view from that pitch though, hope you get your leak sorted out soon and Tara is feeling much better, take care and have a wonderful new year ❤❤️🐾🐾👍.

      Thank you both for all the hours you spend researching and filming for these videos it is appreciated. Wishing you a very happy and healthy 2026 and looking forward to watching all of your adventures next year xx

      So sorry to hear that you’ve had a leaking problem with your house. We have a family member who is a time served painter and decorator. He reports that many houses built in recent years have been poorly constructed. Also, we have a niece who had a leaking issue with a house from new. After receiving some advice and getting a “paper trail” going as legal security, their relevant house builder then acted more responsibly and actually sorted out the problem. Hope you can get yours sorted and Happy New Year.

      Bay windows have always been a problem, need a camera in the cavity to see if the cement has been cleared between the outer and inner walls. . Those prices are very expensive as most insurance jobs are.

      It's been such a good year of great, informative videos. Thank-you for all the time and effort you put into bringing us quality and interesting content. A very Happy New Year to you.

      Happy New Year wishes to you both! Fingers crossed that leaking roof is finally sorted for you and little Tara is much better now. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

      Hi Bob and Jenny. Happy New Year to you both. We enjoy watching your travels. Hubby is wondering how you manage to travel and keep moho gleaming at this time of year lol. One wee trip and ours is filthy by time we arrive on site. 😂. Also any tips for removing black streaks? We’ve tried silky, fenwicks, and various others but have a few stubborn streaks. Hope Tara is ok now

      Happy new year to you both. Hope things improve !! Can I ask please …my friend spotted a photo on FB, of you playing Rummikub. We also play it a lot , and she said that yours looked like bigger tiles than ours ! Is yours a special edition or the Jacques one ? Or are her eyes deceiving her 😂
      Enjoy New Years Day at Meathop.

      Hope your ceiling gets sorted soon. Thanks for showing us around this camp site, sensible to take dogs away from all the noise of New Year. All the best for 2026. June

    23. @rogermadeley7413 on

      These little dogs eh.I don't think people that have never had one realise that they mean the world to people that do and if they don't mean the world then they shouldn't have one. As an ex builder and all the trouble that you have had so far with your dormer window (didn't you say in a vlog before that it has a roof)? I would recommend that the old one is taken off and a new one put on from scratch with new flashings & pointed up properly.
      Looking forward to you getting back up into Scotland although you are well south from us on Orkney. Happy New Year to you both & Poppy & Tara and you will always have somewhere to "plug into" if your ever around Stromness.😁

      Great video and HNY – it was odd seeing you driving back to site in the dark as we're so used to your daylight vids – just a thought but perhaps a video on tips of what to do in cold weather or rather what not to do!!! I noted you were not putting your water hose out or switching your waste to empty – hope your house gets sorted and happy motorhoming for 2026

    28. @janetbowen7854 on

      Happy New Year to you Jenny, Bob, Poppy and Tara. How dreadful re your roof at home, so stressful, hope you get it sorted soon, thank goodness you have NHBC cover. Not a great advert for Bellway!! Meathop Fell CAMC campsite looks great. So handy with the hotel and bar nearby. We love Grange over Sands, there's a brilliant deli which sells the most amazing homemade biscuits plus a fantastic second hand bookshop which is like an Aladdin's cave😂😂 Hope Tara is ok now, they're such a worry. Bateman, our German Shorthaired Pointer has arthritis, however he's on max strength You Move tablets morning and night with his food and as prescribed by our vet, 3/4 of a paracetamol tablet twice a day with food, his walking and running about is amazing on this regime. Looking forward to seeing you in Moffat, hope you don't get snowed in.

      Take care, thanks for everything you do to promote camping and motorhoming, walking, eating out and days out. Love your videos. I will be at the February NEC on the Wednesday, will visit Aisleen's pet stall, hope to bump into you as I explore the exhibition. I'm very excited to be going, never been before. ❤❤❤xxx

      Hi Bob,Jenny, Poppy and Tara, this looks a campsite enjoyed the walk around the site. Poor little Tara all those teeth out such a shame, now off to the vets, bless her. OOh not nice the anal glands poor little one. Hope the pain killers help her. Sorry to hear your bay window roof is still not repaired, hope they sort it out properly this time for you. What a lot of stress, Wishing you both A Happy New Year x Julie and Tony x
